SystemLogoff posted:I'm pretty sure that the trade would not have worked in the base game, I'm pretty sure that the ingame trades are on a totally different system than player trades. I'm positive there was a first gen NPC trainer in the original who gave you a Machoke who evolved into Machamp. It was pretty early-game, so I guess they did it to showcase the evolving-on-trade mechanic. But I bet the romhacker made the four trade evolutions available as wild pokémon encounters as well.

That loving Sned posted:I think what happened with the trade at the end of video 8 was that the ROM hacker mistakenly gave you a Kadabra named Alakazam. Also, it might only be possible for Pokemon to evolve in one way, at least in this generation, so a Pokemon can't evolve both by levelling, trading, or using an elemental stone. Or, what I think: He gave you a Kadabra named Alakazam because he could not figure out why the trade was failing. It would have been super easy to just trade you an Alakazam straight up though, just a one byte change. Cyphoderus posted:I'm positive there was a first gen NPC trainer in the original who gave you a Machoke who evolved into Machamp.

In fact, it makes we wonder if it's really just trading a Machamp in Yellow, and pretending it's a Machoke before. SystemLogoff fucked around with this message at 21:04 on May 25, 2014 |

Alright everyone, I've actually played ahead and I'm standing right outside the gates of the Elite Four. I have five members in my permanent party, but need just one more. Argue amongst yourselves. Who is it gonna be? Who's the most ballin' original Pokemon and why? The Pokemon with the best reason sticks with me for the final two videos.

Lickitung. Look at this dippy mother fucker. He will crush anything you want him to. He's got Wrap, he has Body Slam for paralyzing the poor things in front of it, and he can learn a ton of poo poo from TMs. Ice Beam and Blizzard? Done. Toxic? Easy. Surf, Fire Blast, Earthquake, loving Fissure? He has you covered. He can fill any spot on your team with a great set of moves, and he's a badass mother fucker. Don't just give the Elite Four a kicking. Give them a licking.

Use Snorlax. If you're not using snorlax, it's not a real goon pokemon lp.Cyphoderus posted:This hack puts wild pokémon at levels above the ones which they're supposed to evolve, right? Doesn't this mean that once they evolve, they're on average worse than a vanilla mon of the same species, since they spent more levels in their lower-stat unevolved form? Or does it not work that way? I used to believe this was the case for a long time, but stats are not arbitrary points given upon level up. They're calculated from the pokemon's level, species and ev/iv. Cursed Lumberjack posted:Being fluent in french I made the bold choice to play my Y version in french, since they finally gave you the ability to choose a language rather than making you buy a whole different cartridge and deal with region-locking. There were some benefits, since breeding with different nationality Pokemon increases shiny chance (plus some other quirks) but for the most part it just meant that I don't know the english names for any of the new Pokemon, and using guides was really difficult when I got stuck since the city names are not even remotely translatable, for the most part. Also, the guy who tells you IVs says completely different things; a perfect stat in English is something like "It can't be better!" while in french it translates to "It's fantastic!" Very misleading. As a french person playing videogames in english my whole life, I heartily recommend playing games in French. It's really funny to see the differences, like how Tackle is named Charge (in french) and Charge (in english) is named Chargeur. I just wish you could swap languages in xy at any time like some other 3ds games. It's also taught me dialect that I wasn't familiar with, like with Tail Whip - Mimi-queue, I learned that "mimi" apparently meaning "cute" ("mignon"?).

Mr DJB posted:All three starter have access to broken, glitchy Gen 1 moves. Holy poo poo does that bring back memories. Fuckin' Fire Spin. In Gen I, it's a 70% accuracy 15 power move that takes a ton of time and is rarely worth it for you. For the CPU? Lethal, EVERY TIME. Pokemon Stadium let you port in your GBA team. In my yellow version, I apparently missed the rival battle you could do on Route 22 (the early fight on that route that leads to the elite 4 later) and he got a Flareon instead of a lovely Jolteon. Now, Mewtwo is still a good pokemon today, but he was a god in Gen I, but even he couldn't kill Flareon in one hit (unless I had done Amnesia a few times earlier in the fight, but Flareon was often first in queue so I didn't get the chance). Here's what would happen: Body slam, Mewtwo is paralyzed. Fire spin, Mewtwo is caught in fire spin. Fire spin, Mewtwo is caught in fire spin. Mewtwo is released from fire spin! Mewto is fully paralyzed. Fire spin Now, I never played against the Jolteon team, so I don't know. Maybe Thunder Wave + Pin Missile could've been trouble, but I'd still take that any day compared to loving Fire Spin. Oh, and anyone who doesn't pick the fire starter type is wrong. I don't mean opinion-wise. I mean like, morally and physically. You're wrong on an ontological level. You're a being that doesn't belong in this world, and the universe itself if repulsed by you. If you were an enemy in a table-top game, I would have to make a SAN check because I couldn't comprehend your existence. That's how wrong you are. For example, in X and Y, there was a window where you could have starters from 3 different generations: An X/Y starter, a Gen I starter, and a free Torchic through an online promotion. Some people argued that it gave you a chance to diversify the team, having one fire, one water, and one grass starter. If you were human you would ignore these people and proceed to burn down everything with your team of 3 fire starters. (Besides, Charmander is totally the right long-term pick in Gen I. poo poo against the early bosses, but you'll be up to your armpits in grass and water types. What fire types are you going to get? Red has Growlithe, which only gets Ember unless you delay evolving it until level 50 and piss away its stat growths (Blue doesn't see him AT ALL), and after that there's what? Magmar if you're Blue and remember to catch him at Cinnabar? Flareon, who sucks because he uses Attack stat even though all fire moves use Special? Moltres who gets Fire Spin as its only fire move?)
